Abstract: Watertight luminary for fluorescent lamps (1) with incorporated catoptrical, or diffusive reflector (2) for light direction for the increase of its luminary efficiency. The metallic base (3) of the electrical components of the watertight luminary (1) is fixed at the bottom of the plastic base (4) so that it has smaller dimensions and, consequently, less material and lower assembling time comparing to the metallic base which would be fixed as a cover (8) in the open upper side of the plastic base. With the support of the metallic base (3) at the bottom of the plastic base (4) of the luminary, there is ample space in the upper open side of the plastic base (4) that allows the placement of the reflector (2) at the optimal distance from the fluorescent lamps (5) so that the desirable concentration and direction of light can be achieved. The reflector (2) for the light direction is shaped from plastic film of at least one reflective surface in an integrate form. The reduction of construction cost of the reflector (2) and of the metallic base (3) of electrical components in combination with the appropriate distance of the reflector (2) from the fluorescent lamps (5), allows the standard and permanent incorporation of the reflector (2) for light direction in the watertight fluorescent luminary (1) and results in the increase of its luminary efficiency by 15%.

Abstract: A weight measurement system is disclosed for measuring the weight of an occupant in a vehicle seat. In a preferred embodiment, a sensor is positioned at the rear portion of the vehicle seat and a load transfer link is used to transfer the weight from the front portion of the vehicle seat to the rear portion, to be measured by the sensor. The transfer link is a selectively compliant beam having a first rigid section and a second rigid section connected to each other via a flexible area. The first and second rigid sections preferably include wing portions for increasing the rigidity of the sections. The flexible area is more compliant than the rigid sections. The load transfer link is configured to transition a load placed on the front portion of the link to the rear portion. In a more preferred embodiment of the invention, the load transfer link is made of a high strength, low alloy steel.

Abstract: An 1:n or m:n path protection mechanism is provided. Rather than defining an automatic protection protocol, use is made of the existing tandem connection monitoring function, tandem connection reverse defect indication (RDI), and tandem connection trail trace identifier. Upon detection of a failure on the working path segment (1W), the occurrence of this failure is communicated to the far end node by inserting forced RDI into the tandem connection as long as the failure persists. In the case of more than one protected paths, the failed path is identified by means of the unique trail trace identifier received on the protection path. In the case of several protection paths, one network node is defined as slave node which has to follow the switch-over initiated by the master node and choose the same protection path as the master node. Preferably, a combination of two timers enables return from failure condition to normal operation. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A reduction is made in signal distortion that occurs in an output signal of a PWM switching power amplifier due to noise disturbances from a switching power supply. In a switching power amplifier that has a switching power supply unit 11 as a power supply, a clock signal S18 for controlling the switching of the switching power supply unit 11 is generated based on a clock signal S6 that is used to synchronize switching operations. The clock signal S18 has a clock repeated period that is an integer multiple of a repeated period t of the clock signal S6 and matches a timing at which a signal level of a PWM power signal S4 that is generated by the switching power amplifier is at the ground level.

Abstract: The invention relates to a blade element for shading and/or light guiding devices for buildings, comprising a supporting profile section (2), at least two plate carriers (3) which are secured to the supporting profile section (2) and which at least partially surround said supporting profile section (2), in addition to at least one plate (4) which is made of glass, plastic, natural or artificial stone or similar and which is held by the plate carriers.According to the invention,  the supporting profile section (2) has a non-circular cross-section and the plate carriers (3) are provided with a contour which is fully or at least partially adapted to the cross-section of the supporting profile section (2) in the area thereof which surrounds the supporting profile section (2) . Said design provides a simpler construction for the entire blade element (1). Another major advantage is that the plate carriers (3) do not need to be aligned since only one sensible mounting option is provided for the plate supports (3) on the supporting profile section (2) by virtue of the non-circular cross-section. The plate which is made of glass, plastic, natural or artificial stone or similar can thus be mounted in a stress-free manner without the need for alignment work to be carried out with respect to the plate carriers (3).

Abstract: During the growth and study of NSCs, a range of molecules present on the surface of multipotent neural stem and progenitor cells (NSCs) were identified. These markers were identified using a number of human and murine neural stem cell lines, including retinal stem cells (RSCs). The NSC-specific markers identified included gene products as well as non-protein molecules and sugar epitopes not directly coded in the genome. Together with surface markers which were determined to be absent from the surface of hNSCs, the molecules described herein provide a means to enrich for neural stem cells, or neural progenitor subpopulations, particularly using combinatorial cell sorting strategies. These same molecules also represent targets for pharmacological manipulation of NSC populations and subpopulations, both in vivo and ex vivo. Furthermore, these molecules provide potential targets for therapeutic manipulation of other neural precursor-related cell types including malignant conditions as well as other diseases originating from, or preferentially affecting, various uncommitted or replication-competent cell types.
